Probable cause
Remedial action was not performed by the CFI. A factor related to the accident was directional control was not maintained by the student pilot.
Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The CFI pilot said that the student pilot lost directional control during the landing roll out and over applied the brakes. The aircraft swerved off the runway and nosed over.
